    Hun, my daughters name is Ashlyn and everyone comments on how beautiful it is. I dont care if they are lying or not because we love it so much and it suits her to a tee!

    You do what ever you like hun. It will be your DD if it is a DD and its no one elses business. Just dont tell anyone any of your ideas. Its hard enough naming your child without other peoples opinions.

    Yeah, you're asking the wrong people hon. I LOVE Ashlyn! It was on our shortlist but our SIL is Ashlee so we decided it would be a bit much.

    It's a gorgeous name and Dylan is too!

    I really like the name Ashlyn, i know two Ashlyn's its a pretty name. Honestly whenever you tell people the name's you like they always have something bad to say, i have learned just to go with whatever you and your partner like and don't listen to anyone.. If i was to have another baby although i am NOT lol i just would not tell anyone the name until we have bubs, its not worth the stress.

    Good luck with TTC and Ashlyn is very pretty!!!

    Never tell people what you plan to call your child... they will generally use the opportunity to be critical... if you keep it a secret until afterwards you won't hear anything negative unless they are prepared to be called rude! People used to ask me what I planned on calling my children but I refused, saying that I had heard too many stories of people being critical and you can NEVER please everyone so it's not worth it. It annoyed my mum I think but stuff it... I am glad I held firm.
